Can you heat these in a Gigi wax heater?

Probably if you get it out of the container. It comes in a container, and you'd have to heat it initially to get it out.

Yes you can. I own one and I do water bath canning and cook in mine often. I do not recommend very high heat.

I use gigi facial honee wax. These strips are great to use with any hot wax system.

I think so. See post below. You can also heat them in the microwave and put them in a basket of rolls to keep them warm.

Yes. That's exactly what I did. I like Epillys wax & I just heated it up & poured it in. I really like it. The wax never gets too hot either.

You could, if you wanted to. It has a standby mode where it will stay on but not at full heat. It is intended to be used that way in salons, so that when they arrive in the morning, they can heat the wax up to therapeutic temperatures more quickly. If turned off, the wax will cool back to solid form, I believe the standby mode keeps it just warm enough to keep it liquid.

No there is no way to ajust the temp on them, I just let them heat up for about 10 min and then I open the top and let them cool if I want more of just a wave to my hair and not a tight curl. I hope this helps.

The metal piece is not used for wax, it is a type of cup holder for the wax container that you need to insert the wax container into the metal piece. Sort of like a cup stacked onto another cup type. Gigi warmer is sold separately from several Gigi wax products that you can find here on Amazon. Be sure to remove the plastic top off before you begin to melt the wax container! Don't forget the collars they are so helpful in keeping your warmer clean from drippings of the wax! Hope this helps you!

i don't see why not but it seems like a lot of extra trouble to me. You also might get the wax too hot and that would be a big problem. I recommend you just plan ahead and not risk messing with melted wax that could be potentially dangerous.

hi Katy - No! Never put wax directly on the heat! It is too volatile, and can catch fire that way. Recommended - either get a double boiler, or use an available adapter to make an existing pot the bottom part. Also recommended - candle-making thermometer to make sure your temps are okay, and a beginning candle-making book.

I wouldn't, because it's in a plastic container, and the plastic will melt. I would recommend getting a hard wax warmer.

I am not sure but they would get very hot and I wouldn't chance it. Maybe go directly to their website for confirmation? They do heat up in the microwave.

Yes I dried them on a warm heat setting and it was fine. I assume you can dry them on a higher heat if you choose.

no, you need to buy it separately, but the Gigi works with most wax container.

I'm sure you could but a hair dryer would be safer as even the low setting on the heat gun will melt plastic in fairly short order.

Yes, I heated mine with a hair dryer. You can also use a heat gun if you have one.

They are not wax (but they look like it!). They are polycarbonate (plastic) and shouldn't be an issue using in one of the southern states. They also don't give off heat if that's what you're worry about as well. Hope that helps!
